The dumplings were produced by CJ Foods Manufacturing Beaumont Corporation in California on December 7 and shipped to Trader Joe’s locations nationwide, according to an announcement from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service.
The recalled products are Trader Joe’s Steamed Chicken Soup Dumplings sold in 6-ounce boxes with plastic trays. They have lot codes 03.07.25.C1-1 and 03.07.25.C1-2 printed on the side of the box and say P-46009 inside the USDA mark of inspection.
